@wittecoupleweek Day 6: Children

The life they deserved </3

[peachymermaids]

haha, so y'know that idea about Caleb's kid looking a lot like his brother, and his wife being haunted by the face of her husband's murderer every day?

[ambericesage]

Y’all remember Wittecouple week’s last prompt ending?

Well I did a thing

[pdaliceliveblogs]

And the Collector is wedged deeply into Philip’s psyche too.

[ambericesage]

Four days left til For the Future!!! :D (ignore my blanket)

IM SO EXCITED

I need a Caleb and Evelyn flashback

(I love how happy I draw them it’s like Philip was never a selfish bitch)

[pdaliceliveblogs]

that’s a straight-up horror movie shot

[pdaliceliveblogs]

“He’s got the portal?!”

...I fully forgot Luz didn’t know that, god damn

[pdaliceliveblogs]

I was going to say something about this mad dash but then I realized there was a portrait in the back and went to take a shot of it and

Fuck.

[pdaliceliveblogs]

Ha.

Of course. Of course! Of course the wee one is the real Inner Belos. This is the curse, the creation, the souls of all the poor creatures he’s absorbed trying to delay his own death.

When we saw him for real in Elsewhere and Elsewhen, we found that he’s always been like this; the journal wasn’t the last record of a wise man before he lost his mind. It was a lie.

He’s always been like this. Why assume the wee child isn’t his true self?

[pdaliceliveblogs]

Hunter’s trying so hard to rationalize this away. It has to hurt like hell.

What did King say earlier, about how it’s hard for people to believe they’ve spent their whole lives following the wrong person? Yeah. That.

[pdaliceliveblogs]

A bag of something that clinks, and some rope. Hmm.

[pdaliceliveblogs]

spooky child laughter, very nice

[pdaliceliveblogs]

IN WE GO

[pdaliceliveblogs]

The little nod when she asks him to show her who the real Belos is. Ow.

[pdaliceliveblogs]

...what are you collecting, Little Wittebane?

[pdaliceliveblogs]

Oooh, so baby!Philip’s actually trying to be helpful, interesting. Actually, that does make me think maybe it’s Caleb, bc he has a distinctly purple glow compared to this Belos who’s blue. I’m just gonna tag him wittekid for now. 

That freaky skeletal look under the cape, with the eyes everywhere... big OtGW Beast vibes.
